it was a stunning admission of possibly defeat that speaker boehner announced just days ago. he's looking at the same maps and numbers we are. he says there are 50 republican districts in play. i actually think it's about 60, but i'll meet him in the middle. we only need 25 to take the majority, and not to harp on buyer's remorse you just spoke of, he's detecting the same, where they elected a tea party republican in 2010, thought they were getting somebody to solve problems, instead gout somebody who was extreme, and spent more time figuring out how to shut down planned parenthood that is start a small business. >> now, congressman, you mentioned the number and i remined people too to gob to the numbers. you need 25 seats. or who hold districts won by president obama in 2008. now, that obviously is more than enough seats for you. the question i have, we have seen three straight wave eselections, 2006, 2008, 2010, by wave i mean where national issues tended to matter more than local issues, and we talk big swings. is 2012 going to be another wave election? and do you need it
